Hi,
Could you make these 5 instances of "Not unsure" be more
palatable and less confusing?
E.g., "Not sure" or "If not sure".
But not the double negative...
As is, it basically says: "Sure ? say M."

Oops, blind cut&past without reading carefully :).

Yep, those are mine. They belong to Linux Bluetooth subsystem.
btw Linux is the first OS that has official Bluetooth support.
Here we go:
CONFIG_BLUEZ
Bluetooth is low-cost, low-power, short-range wireless technology.
It was designed as a replacement for cables and other short-range
technologies like IrDA. Bluetooth operates in personal area range
that typically extends up to 10 meters.
More information about Bluetooth can be found at http://www.bluetooth.com
Linux Bluetooth subsystem consist of several layers:
HCI Core (device and connection manager, scheduler)
HCI Device drivers (interface to the hardware)
L2CAP Module (L2CAP protocol)
Say Y here to enable Linux Bluetooth support and to build HCI Core
layer.
To use Linux Bluetooth subsystem, you will need several user-space utilities
like hciconfig and hcid. These utilities and updates to Bluetooth kernel
modules are provided in the BlueZ package.
For more information, see http://bluez.sf.net.
If you want to compile HCI Core as module (hci.o) say M here.
Not unsure ? say N.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP
L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) provides connection
oriented and connection-less data transport. L2CAP support is required for
most Bluetooth applications.
Say Y here to compile L2CAP support into the kernel or say M to compile it
as module (l2cap.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART
Bluetooth HCI UART driver.
This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with serial
port interface.
Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth UART devices into the kernel
or say M to compile it as module (hci_uart.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB
Bluetooth HCI USB driver.
This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with USB
interface.
Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth USB devices into the kernel
or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU
Bluetooth Virtual HCI device driver.
This driver is required if you want to use HCI Emulation software.
Say Y here to compile support for Virtual HCI devices into the kernel or
say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).
Not unsure ? say M.

The 2.4.6-pre2 kernel introduces some new configuration symbols:
CONFIG_AMD7409_OVERRIDE
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_AMD7409
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OSB4
CONFIG_BLUEZ
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB
CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP
Would the people responsible for these symbols please write Configure.help
entries and send them to me? Before this update Configure.help had
complete coverage; let's try to keep it that way.
